for the past 31 years marathon runners, their friends and families, travel from all corners of the globe to converge on southern utah and celebrate the St. George Marathon.
now...i have watched people run by me on the sidelines for some years. and i have even been at the finish line a few times to see runners receive their medals.... the sweat, tears, triumph and most importantly the medals. *sigh...ohhh the medals.i know i will never get one of those medals. witnessing this event annually has created what i call:
medal envy (n)-the unconscious desire and coveting to posses a medal, leading to feelings of inferiority and defensive or compensatory behavior .
so, the super friends have decided to celebrate the fact that everybody can be a winner. the first 50 people will get their own super friends block party participant medal. come have some free food and drinks and listen to great music all to celebrate the winner in everyone! yeeeahoooo!the block party will kick off on october 4, 2008 (on what is traditionally known as "marathon weekend") in st. george, utah @ 10am-2pm.
bring your bikes, blades, skate decks, roller skates.... any wheels you might have (we do not discriminate) and enjoy the fun.
Sunset Cycles will be giving away a free cruiser bike and running some unconventional races for all ages and abilities, grün will be giving away gift certificates, Soho Skatehub is donating a skatedeck and will have their skate team throwing down some demos, Sandy Crack Skimboards will be showing the newest in skim boards as well as awarding one to a lucky partyer. Finally Tropsicals will be there to provide the best shave ice anywhere, their ice is sooooo nice.
tell your friends, tell your folks, tell your old lady... it'll be super rad and visit the super friends website for more information.
